What is all the buzz about our need to cut down on using oil? Even though the earth continues to produce fossil fuel, technology and power use has increased so much that people are using fossil fuels at a higher rate than the Earth can produce. Because most of the energy the U.S. uses comes from fossil fuel, and because this fuel will eventually run out, scientists and researchers are looking for alternative energy sources.
Alternative energy sources can be either non-renewable (once they are used they don't come back) or renewable (they can never be exhausted). Non-renewable sources are the fossil fuels we currently use: coal, natural gas, crude oil, etc. There are many types of renewable energy, harnessing power from things like the sun, water, wind and biomass.
Renewable sources can be used over and over again, and can often harness enough power to meet a significant amount of demand. Currently, renewable energy accounts for 25% of the human energy use around the world.
We can use the water that naturally flows in rivers and streams to make power. Rivers are dammed to create a reservoir of water. The water from the reservoir is released, and as it flows it spins turbines that run electric generators. Hydropower is the most widely used renewable energy source. It made up 3% of the U.S. energy usage in 2009.
While hydropower does not produce any air pollution, damming rivers means changing the natural habitats of the region in a big way. Fish and plants that usually live in or along the river could die because of changes in water temperature or water level.
Wind power is harnessed through wind turbines which are large windmills that are designed to capture air and convert it to electricity. The wind turbines are connected to generators that then produce electricity. This electricity then goes into power lines that bring it right into people's homes.
However, in order to gather the most electricity, the wind has to be constantly blowing. This doesn't happen very often, so wind power does not always generate enough electricity. An upside is that wind, unlike the sun, is available day and night.
Biomass can be trees, plants, corn, plant waste—basically any plant matter that can be burned for heat/electricity or turned into fuel, which can be liquid (ethanol/methanol) or gaseous.
Fuel made from biomass has great potential for being the next big source of energy for transportation. Biodiesel can replace typical diesel fuel to run cars.
Biomass might not be a renewable energy source if we use it faster than it can be made. Also, when creating this fuel, there will be pollutants released when biomass is burned.
The sunshine that warms you on a chilly day also contains energy that can be collected as electricity to keep our lights running and our kitchen appliances humming. Many homes are now being designed to better harness the energy from the sun. You can also use solar power to heat up water in your house.
Energy from the sun produces electricity. This is done in two main ways: the photovoltaic process and solar thermal electric process. The photovoltaic process uses special cells that take sun's rays and make them into electricity. It's useful for places that can't otherwise get near an electric grid. Solar thermal electricity uses the sun's heat to boil water. The boiling water makes steam which moves a turbine that causes a generator to make electricity.
Solar power has some problems too—the sun isn't always up so its heat isn't available 24/7. But, solar power is a renewable, environment-friendly source.
Geothermal energy is gathered from heat inside of the earth. Deep wells are drilled into the surface of the earth to penetrate hot water that has been heated by magma and to be used as a source of energy. This heated water, like in solar thermal electricity, can then move a turbine that runs an electricity generator. Geysers are usually the best places to access this kind of energy.
However, geothermal energy might not be a renewable energy source if we use it faster than it can be remade by the earth.
Even trash can be used for power! Solid waste can be burned in plants to produce electricity and a gas called methane can be harvested from landfills as solid waste decays.
A Renewable Future?
The United States and other countries around the world are investing in research around renewable energy. How can these sources be used more effectively? What technology needs to be implemented to get the most energy out of things like the wind? Scientists and researchers are working towards answers to these questions. Maybe one day the world will run on renewable sources!

Why a milter archiver? If you are required to also log source and destination IPs and BCCs (additional rcpt to's not in a CC field communicated at the SMTP protocol level), then the only option is do this in the MTA, or in a milter application that has hooks in the MTA process (which is exactly why milter was invented). It uses a simple regex file that can be used with several *source target-mailbox rules to define what gets mirrored where. The archiver tries to be as quiet as possible. The possible methods to archive are SMTP, sendmail inject / Postfix inject, IMAP delivery, and milter-add recipient. It was build as a replacement for a Postfix BCC setup: (sender_bcc_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/archive; recipient_bcc_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/archive).
HyperList.vim is a Vim plugin for handling HyperLists. HyperList is a methodology to describe anything: any state, item(s), pattern, action, process, transition, program, instruction set, etc. HyperList can be used as an outliner, a TODO-list solution, a project management tool, a business process management aid, a data modeler, a use case facilitator, or for any other application that makes use of descriptions of states or transitions. This plugin does both highlighting and various automatic handling of HyperList, like collapsing lists or parts of lists in a sophisticated way. Since HyperList.vim can also encrypt your lists, it can be used as a very structured password safe.

Officials say courthouse facing records 'crunch'
By Max Hrenda
The condition of the third floor at the Carter County Courthouse has become so distressing that one local judge refuses to hold court there until the problem is fixed.
"What we have is a situation where, through the years, especially in the judge's chambers and the witness room, we've got a major deflection of the floor system," said County Mayor Leon Humphrey. "There are some doorways that have dropped as much as 1/2-inch over time because of the superimposed loading of the floor. It's causing a problem."
For years, the vacant offices on the courthouse's top floor have served as storage areas for records and files from the courthouse offices, as well as the filing cabinets and bins that store them.
"This does not limit itself just to that area," Humphrey said. "All those office spaces on the third floor that are not being used, for whatever reason … the officeholders have elected to put a tremendous amount of materials in there. The floor system area is not designed to support those types of loads."
County Commissioner L.C. Tester, who chairs the county's Building and Grounds Committee, confirmed Humphrey's assessment, saying that the building's structural stability has been affected by the records.

gre math
Looking to take the GRE in 2011?
Be mindful that the format and point system will be changing by this time next year.
According to The New York Times, the test will be revamped and even extended in length, with a new grading scale of 130 to 170. The Educational Testing Service ("ETS"), which administers the GRE, claims the changes are the "largest revisions" in the GRE history.
So, what's going to change?
While the exam will continue to include verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning and analytical writing – all three sections are being revamped. In terms of the changes within each section, here is a breakdown of what to expect:
- VERBAL: The verbal section will eliminate all questions on antonyms and analogies.
- QUANTITATIVE: While there are several minor changes, there is an advantage to the quantitative section: an online calculator!
- ANALYTICAL WRITING: While this section will still have two parts, including a question for logical analysis and personal opinion. The questions themselves will be more focused, ultimately allowing the raters to know the answer itself wasn't memorized, but was actually written in response to the question.
The GRE is unique in that it's "computer adaptive." What does that mean? Well, when you answer one question correctly the test will then take you to a more difficult question. Should you answer a question incorrectly, the test will take you to an easier question. The new GRE. in 2011 will be three and a half hours in length.
Why the changes? It seems the G.R.E. is trying to keep up a presence with the GMAT, an increasingly popular test for graduate admission and business schools, in particular. While there were announcements as early as 2005 to update the test and lengthen it to four hours, those plans were soon cancelled due to delays in setting up Internet-based test centers. The plans were then cancelled altogether in 2007.
At this present time, the Internet version of the GRE lasts three hours, whereas the paper-based version lasts three hours and forty-five minutes. According to the New York Times, over 600,000 students take the GRE annually.

Guests Reviews About This Trip
Like the other trips with Backroads, this was a wonderful trip with incredible scenery, exceptional leaders, an interesting and varied itinerary, and a really fun, nice group of people with various backgrounds but still very compatible. It was everything that was promised and more. We never worry when we are contemplating a Backroads trip.- Highland Park, IL
I had never cycled and always said I hated riding a bike. My friend talked me into this trip. So 2 months before departure I borrowed a road bike and began riding twice a week. My goal was just to survive the trip. Not only did I survive but I loved every minute of it! The guides and the other guests encouraged and inspired me to push myself to new levels of strength and endurance. After a hard day of riding it was SO nice to arrive at a beautiful hotel with my bags waiting for me in my room.- Sarasota, FL

Orange San Francisco 2
Theme and market problem for ANDROID 2.2 (should be easy for you lott ;D)?
Hey everyonee
im having seriouse trouble with my SanFrancisco phone from orange ( Zte Blade )
iv successfully rooted my phone and have clockworkrecoveryMod Working fab
but i have a couple of problems, i recently upgraded to froyo (android 2.2) using this page: Orange San Francisco phone handset – How to unlock, root and upgrade Android 2.1 to 2.2 FroYo The IT Bod
i have done this correctly and im happy with the result, (apart from all my data been lost, but i dont mind as long as i have froyo
but heres the problem,
I realllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy like this theme
Minimal Matte 1.5 CM6 Full Rom! 8/7 – xda-developers
so iv saved the theme as update.zip and put it in the root of my phone,
then i opend clockwork and selected the theme correctly, and installation was succesfull,
but when i boot up again after the installation the android startup screen is stuck,
anyone helpp plzzz
First, notice how your Theme says CM6? Well that means it will only work with CM6 ROM from Cyanogen. You can't just flash whatever theme you want all nilly willy like. There is a lot more to a theme than just pictures.
So you're going to have to boot back into recovery mode and do a nand restore if you made a back up, or reflash your rom that you originally flashed. You shouldn't lose anything if you reflash.

One or two weeks ago I finished my Honours Degree in Computer Science. Yay for me. Finishing brought a short lived sense of relief, followed by a great sense of futility. I choose to continue with Masters next year so I have some time to kill until then.
Saturday I was sitting around wondering what to do with my day. It was sunny outside with a moderate south easterly wind blowing, as is common in Cape Town at this time of year. I had just started running again that week after spending most of the year in front of a computer screen. I decided to open up Google Earth and map out a new run. I've been wanting to go for a run in the Durbanville Wine Valley, so mapped a one that ended up being 31km.
I was by no means very fit, but figured that if I just kept the pace down and stopped for regular breathers, I would be fine. I had nothing better to do so I gave it a shot.
The run was quite fun, at least until the hill at the top of Vissers Hok road after about 20km. The wind had gotten rather strong and was howling from the top down at me. Running up would have been rather unpleasant so I walked. Things got easier on the other side, but I could feel my muscles staring to burn.
On the way down I got an incredible craving for cold beer. I realized that the bottle store was about to close. I had one hour to cover 10km if I wanted to make it back in time. It seemed unlikely, but I was hopeful. I got home 5 minutes too late. I did however still have some cider left over from my birthday braai, so that went down pretty well. Thanks Lawrence :)
I've done squat for the past two days now. My legs are still a tiny bit stiff. I'm feeling quite optimistic about my running endurance, so I've plotted a 25km route to Blaauwberg beach that I might do tomorrow. My buddy Jaco has kindly agreed to drive me back home after. It should be a pretty sweet run :)

Alex James' Ascot look
By admin on July 29th, 2008
Alex James looked great pictured at Ascot recently with his wife Claire. Sporting a white suit with an off-white shirt the former Blur bassist kept things interesting with a pale mustard retro tie. I wouldn't have thought textured ties were a very good look in summer but it's quite an effective look. See after the jump for a selection of the best summer textured ties.

Beautiful pictures!
We were fortunate to be able to go to Prague a few years ago and were absolutely stunned at the architecture, cathedrals, etc. Prague was never bombed during WWII, so the city is full of buildings that are hundreds of years old. This is one of my favorite photos that I took. I thrilled it came out so well.

Our program is comprehensive and holistic in its approach to meeting student needs. We offer instructional and emotional support to participants through a freshman year experience organized around a supplemental instructional model that's tied to essential 'gateway' courses. By clustering students in these courses, we create small communities of peers who can offer one another support and who are nurtured by staff and tutors. Participants are strengthened both individually and in groups during enrichment activities designed to build their confidence, provide cultural education, motivate and inform them to achieve their best and support one another. Our staff members are highly trained professionals who focus exclusively on project participants and work together to meet their needs. Our tutors are professionally trained as well in best practices of one-to-one peer instruction. The project is a highly valued and visible part of the campus community, and has met and surpassed most project goals for each cycle. We desire to continue this track record in response to the new standardized objectives and to use thorough evaluations to guide our development over the next five years.

Rodney C. Adkins oversees 50,000 employees and is responsible for $18 billion in revenue as senior vice president and group executive for systems and technology at IBM, one of the world's largest and most durable technology companies. Adkins, 52, also is one of the most powerful African-Americans in high tech.
Until Adkins succeeded his boss, Robert Moffat, after his arrest in relation to the 2009 Galleon insider trading case, most people had never heard of him. The IBM-lifer got the job on an interim basis, with the promotion made permanent less than two weeks later. Adkins is considered one of three candidates to succeed Chief Executive Samuel J. Palmisano, 60, when he retires.
Growing up in the Liberty City neighborhood of Miami, Adkins was 10 years old when the area erupted in riots during the 1968 Republican National Convention. After leaving his hometown to study physics at Rollins College near Orlando, he was one of 25 African-Americans among a student body of 1,200. He joined IBM upon graduation and has left the company only once, to complete a master's degree in electrical engineering at Georgia Tech.
In his 30 years at IBM, Adkins has occupied 19 different positions spanning almost all aspects of the company's various business areas including hardware, software, UNIX servers, PCs and mobile computing. The division he currently heads generated revenue of $4.7 billion in IBM's second quarter, up 17% from the same period last year. Adkins' group also helped develop the underlying server system for the Watson computer, which gained notoriety for beating human competitors on the Jeopardy! game show.
FINS spoke with Adkins about the importance of mentorship, getting work experience outside of your comfort zone, and what can be done to boost the number of minorities in engineering.
Joseph Walker: What did you want to be when you were younger?
RA: I always had a fascination with technology, even to the point of when I was a kid, I would dismantle many of our home appliances just to figure out how they worked. For the most part, I was successful in putting them back together.
My parents harnessed that curiosity. I always wanted to be an engineer, which led into my focus on subjects like math and science, which is a foundation for engineering and computer science today. That's how it all started.
In what I call my night job here at IBM, I work with various constituencies as a strong supporter of what we call STEM [science, technology, engineering and mathematics] disciplines. I'm convinced that when you look at the opportunities particularly for US competitiveness, we need to develop a strong pipeline of talent for the jobs of the 21st century.
JW: How is the US doing in keeping the pipeline for tech talent filled?
RA: We have work to do because if you look at the stats from the Department of Labor, 5% of US workers employed today are in STEM, but when you look at the sustained economic expansion, 50% comes from these types of jobs. The percentages of students studying math and science has decreased from 21% in 1980 to about 16% today according to the National Science Foundation. We have our work cut our for us in terms of stimulating and getting people more excited about the STEM disciplines.
JW: You've climbed to a very senior position at IBM. What was your first big break?
Rodney Adkins: I started at IBM as a hardware engineer, which is my foundational field. So a big break was taking jobs outside of hardware engineering that allowed me to develop skills outside of product development. I've had experience in business operations, experience in software, experience in project management, I even worked briefly in Japan, working with engineers at our Yamato Lab on our first mobile PC called the p70.
The other break, first and foremost because we're tested on results, is getting tested on tough jobs. I have had a couple of really tough jobs, desktop PCs, our UNIX business, and now all of our hardware business.
JW: You were at IBM when the company decided to sell the PC arm to Lenovo in 2004. What did it teach you?
RA: When you look at IBM's heritage, we've always been a company that's been focused on continued innovation. We went into the PC market and became a market leader in the early 1980s. As we saw the world changing and intelligence got embedded in everything we know, our point of view turned to Smarter Planet. Many different types of devices are becoming intelligent connected devices and PCs aren't the only model to have connectivity to the information technology infrastructure.
We took the step to focus our investment in other areas like service and software and research projects like Watson, the next generation of analytics- type platforms.
The decision around PCs was, as we look back, we re-focused on optimized systems, middleware integration of software with our hardware and PCs didn't make as much sense for our overall portfolio.
Leadership is a risky business. And you can characterize risk. There are things called prudent risk when you look at the market opportunity and our financial model, and where we felt the opportunities were going, our point of view was focus our investment on the growth sectors of the market.
To be a leader in our market, you have to be willing to make those types of portfolio changes and execute and deliver the results.
JW: What role did mentors play in your career?
RA: There was one point in my career when I was about 35 years old, where I was very interested in becoming a leader of one of the sales groups in IBM. But from a discussion I had with a mentor [retired IBM executive vice president, Nick Donofrio], it was determined based on where I was in my career I would have a better impact and more than likely produce better results if I pursued a different path, one in product branding and development. I became general manager of PC Desktop Computing, then UNIX Server, followed by Pervasive Computing Software. Frankly, that was probably the best advice I ever received, and it came at a very critical point in my career.
I was redirected in my career path, and frankly that path has resulted in where I landed today in terms of being responsible for a very significant portion of IBM.
Mentoring has been extremely instrumental in my career, to the point where I'm a very active mentor. I have probably well over 100 mentoring relationships within IBM and also some with different professional organization externally like the National Society of Black Engineering. I'm very active as a board member for the NACME (National Action Council for Minorities In Engineering).
JW: You started your engineering career in the early 1980s. What were the challenges you faced as an African-American in a predominantly white field?
I found it to be a very challenging, but at the same time, a rewarding experience. I went to Rollins College and majored in physics. It was a very small school of 1,200 students, about 25 African-Americans on campus.
My focus was on my commitment to my work and the results from my work. My view was I could compete on any stage by being committed to producing positive results, and that logic works in high school, college and even in the workplace. It's the same thing here at IBM. I always tell people that you're only as good as your last quarter. The reason I tell them that is because everything is about consistent performance, your work and the results of your work.
JW: African-Americans account for 12.6% of the population, but received only 4.7% of the bachelor's degrees in engineering in the 2008-2009 school year, according to the National Society of Black Engineers. What do you think accounts for that discrepancy?
RA: It has had several names. One name that has been popular is the digital divide, and what it talks about is the access to technology.
For kids who show an early aptitude toward math and science, are we doing the right things to make sure that kids maintain that interest? There's a lot of systematic things that discourage kids who have a high aptitude toward science and math in the public school system.
Sometimes it's the skill level of the teacher; sometimes it's the economic or environmental conditions the kids are living in. But at some point they get discouraged at pursuing the fields that will lead to jobs in engineering, math and science.
IBM is doing some interesting things where some of our more mature employees, when they get to the point of retirement, they go back to the school system to teach in some of these critical areas. Just to make the point that we have to keep kids interested and we have to make sure we have the talent to teach these critical foundational topics.
JW: Why are you so passionate about underrepresented minorities within technology?
I was fortunate because I had people along the way who gave me great advice and encouragement, so I think I'm at a point in life where its my responsibility to do the same.
I grew up in a very challenged part of Miami, in an area where many of the kids I grew up with didn't get out of the neighborhood, where they ended up victims of their environment. I have to tell you, based on my curiosity and the support system I had from my parents when I tinkered and tore up things--they did not discourage that, they harnessed that. And I had great support from math and science teachers. I often think back on those foundations in becoming interested in physics and engineering and eventually working for one of the world's largest technology companies.
JW: IBM was one of the first companies to affirm its commitment to equal opportunity hiring with Thomas Watson Jr.'s 1953 Equal Opportunity Letter. What does IBM do today that is different from other companies to promote racial diversity?
RA: I think IBM promotes diversity on all dimensions, because it's just good for business. Quite often we like to think about racial or ethnic diversity, but diversity happens on all dimensions. There's a geographic dimension. IBM is a global company and we have operations in 170 different countries. The reason we do that is because people in those countries want to do business with people who look like them.
IBM has always been a leader in sourcing people with the best skills, in all different geographic areas. It's allowed us to be a company that has been able to innovate for 100 years, because we do value the capabilities of our people and we look for the best talent independent of their orientation.
JW: IBM is still a very successful company, but there are younger, some would say sexier, technology companies around today like Google and Facebook. How do you compete for talent?
RA: This company's foundation is investing in innovation. When people look at us, we've been consistent for 100 years. When you look at the top 25 industrial corporations in 1900, only two of those remained in the top 25 in the 1960s [IBM was one]. When you look at the 1960s, there's only six that remain today. The question is, can a company continue to deliver leadership time after time? That's what distinguishes IBM.
When you look at things like Watson, I can't think of any other company in our industry with the know-how to deliver what is the next generation of systems.
You can argue that over the last 100 years of computing, the first was tabulating, this era is computing, the next era is learning for smart systems, i.e. products like Watson.
JW: You've spent your entire career at IBM, ascending from doing quality assurance for printers to senior vice president. For many young engineers today, that career arc seems untenable. What would your advice be to young engineers who want to attain a similar position as you? Become a lifer, or jump around?
RA: Given the size of our company and that we have capabilities across software, hardware and services, IBM's model is many companies within a company. You can explore different opportunities within IBM and you can work in different geographic locations around the world.
I would say at the macro level, you should explore different opportunities. People may decide that a company like IBM isn't what they're looking for in terms of experience, and that's okay if they make that decision. In that regard I'd encourage people to develop a broad set of capabilities. I've developed experience in sales and marketing and software and operations.
Whatever you do, make sure you know what you're strong at and know what you're not strong at. if you're weak and challenged in a certain area make sure you develop strong professional and social networks so you can leverage input and insight from others.

GARALND, TEXAS -- I decided I would go to Church's Fried Chicken on Broadway Blvd. yesterday after church. It is store number #1564.When I pulled into the drive thru and was waiting to order after about 5 minutes of sitting there this lady asked if she could take my order. In the middle of ordering she asked me to hold on. I said okay. So I sat there for about 5 minutes and in the meantime another car pulled in behind me.
I sat there about another 5 minutes (I didn't want to go anywhere else because my family wanted chicken for lunch. The lady behind me screamed to me, "Is the drive thru working?", so I answered yes, she told me to hold on a minute. So the lady answered well, that sure is a long minute!
So, I decided to say something to the order microphone. I said, "hello"! The lady came back on and said "Just a minute, We are short handed today"! So I said okay ma'am. Finally after about 15 minutes sitting at the drive thru she took my order and I pulled up to the window. When I pulled up, the lady looked at me and said, "wait a minute, I've got to fix this lady's order". I didn't know if she had put my order in wrong or someone else's order in wrong. Then she said pull up and I will bring your order out to you. I said okay, so I pulled up and turned my vehicle around facing the building. I looked at the ticket and she had placed my order wrong. (order # 286134). I had asked for the mixed special with just potatoes. She put in all dark meat as my order. I decided since it was taking so much time, and I was very hungry and my family was waiting that I would just take that and go hopefully. As I sat there, 3 or four cars came and went with their orders filled, and 2 people had gone through the window with their orders filled. By then, I had had enough. So I went to the window after waiting behind two more people and asked for my money back. The cashier at the window, who's name was Phillip, asked me if there was a problem.
So I said yes, and pointed to the lady I didn't get her name), who looked like she had eaten my chicken, and said she told me to pull up and she would bring my order out. I had been there 45 minutes by then. Phillip looked at the woman, and asked her what the problem was, and she said Oh, I just forgot about her! By then, I was very upset. To think I had sat out there, and to boot, she had totally forgotten about me! Church's Fried Chicken just lost a good customer. Phillip who was a very nice young man, showed me where he had subtracted my order out of the system, because I had paid with my debit card. It is midday and I am still waiting to see if my account shows where they refunded my money. It has not been put back in my account yet. We love chicken, but I know one thing, Church's will not be getting my hard earned money anymore!

Don't let one bad employee ruin you on cheap chicken at Church's. I hope "Phillip" had some clout. It would have been better to find a member of management. BTW: Did you eat the "wrong" order? You got your money back...that was nice.
Posted by gazelem67 on 2006-07-10:
Even better than finding a member of management, I'd contact Church's corporate office. I know that when I used to work at Subway, our managers and owners HATED to get complaints sent down by corporate.
Regardless, you might (and should) get some sort of "I'm sorry" coupon from them for it. In fact, you may consider demanding it, given the poor customer service you had.
Posted by jan2006 on 2006-07-10:
Yes, I'm going to call corporate. In fact, when I was looking to see if there was a complaint department for Church's, this site came up. At least it made me feel better to be able to vent about the bad customer service I received. As far as Doc J's comment, I thought it was rude.
Three people working in a chicken house, you are not going to find the "manager". As far as cheap chicken, you go to any "restaurant" or "fast food" joint and I don't think you are going to find "pricey" chicken. I never received my order in the first place so how could I have eaten the wrong order? Yes, the "ticket" showed where she had put in the wrong order,and I was even willing to overlook that fact. I would have been happy with the wrong order therefore; I would not have been asking for my money back and at least my family would have had lunch at a decent hour!

Find another Church's to goto after church that was nice of Philip give 'em another chance, though pay with cash and ask for that reciept.
Posted by Doc J on 2006-07-10:
There's always SOMEBODY in charge. Pardon the pun but even three workers in a "chicken house" have a pecking order. Sorry I didn't give you the solicitous answer you were pining for and "cheap chicken" doesn't refer to the price. You got crummy service and patiently sat and waited 45 minutes waiting for it. Commenting on that would be rude.

Don't you just hate it when someone wet behind the ears messes up your favorite place? I hate that with a passion!. Who do they think they are? Do they all come from the same mold? My employees would be fired in in a minute! I only visited churches chicken twice(none in town) and found it an OK place to eat.

I think we must think about the kind of people that are working at fast food places and there locations. The pay is 7.30 and some of them don't come from the subs....i think we need to be a lttle more patient..dot be so quick to call the 800 number to get them fired...the chicken is cheap...cheap...and you do have another option...stay home and cook.

Posted by PepperElf on 2010-06-29:
wait, you're blaming the staff because someone begged from you?
what did you want them to do, beat him up with a stick to keep him out?
Posted by chickenboy on 2011-05-23:
I totally understand your frustration I hope that you were taken care of, however I there was one comment that was kind of immature on your behalf, and that was you saying that the employee looked like she ate your chicken. Come on now, its okay to be upset but to ridicual someone on there weight cause of where they work?? Chill out...

i am a night manager at a churches chicken...and while i understand totally why you are upset...i'll let you in on a few things..for one i know what it is like to be short handed..that is how my store is ran all the time. is the owners decision to have only 3 people doing the work of 6. it is very stessful and frustrating. in my experience it is very stressful to make a drive thru customer wait to order. but when you are doing multiple oreder..drive thru and counter you have to take who was there first...no matter how long it takes. and while you don't need a college degree to work fast food, i'll have you and anyone else who thinks different know that fast food workers are not bottom of the barrel peopple..that is such a nasty steryotype,and i for one resent it. i am a hard working mother of two. and fast food is not an easy job. i am not excusing her of forgetting you. but i do know how it can get..i have been doing churches for 7 years and if it gets hectic and backed up , i would not be shocked if the same thig happend to me. and it's unfortunate you happen to be that customer. but why allow this one bad time to stop you from ever enjoying churchs chicken again?? be it that location or another?? and on a side note...you said you were coming from church?? hasn't serving our lord and allowing him to live in you tought you to rise above?? and i'm talking about your little insulting comment you made about how she looked like she ate your chicken. what a childish immature thing to say... a little un christ like if you ask me.

Rude Employees
Posted by Marple on 12/12/2008
ORANGE, TEXAS -- This afternoon my husband stopped at Church's Fried Chicken to order some chicken for supper. He doesn't like to go to Church's but that is the only fried chicken restaurant in our small town. He was treated so badly as usual. The employees have this don't care attitude. Others that have gone there have reported to us the same thing, saying that they (the employees) just don't care if you order or not, or if you get what you ordered. Church's won't be getting any more of our business. We will look for a grocery store that sells fried chicken, and the employees are very friendly.
Also the chicken is fried just a bit too long, it is not a golden brown, but a bit dark.

Posted by HughesXpress2004 on 2013-06-02:
perhaps it is the church's chicken stores in these southern states where all these bad experiences are taking place, because it is not like that in other stores out west. I think all the owners of these southern franchises are promoting racism and discrimination against blacks, for some apparent reason or another.

Never Go To Church's At Night!
Posted by Naomitx24 on 09/25/2008
GRAND PRAIRIE, TEXAS -- My husband and I went to the Church's Chicken on Carrier and Jefferson and got there about 15 minutes before they were closing. We were cutting it close, but all we ordered were two of the double chicken sandwiches to go so we figured no big deal. We pulled up to the speaker, and they took our order, no problem.
Then, we drove around and paid for our food. The lady at the window left to get us change. We waited. And waited. And waited. About 10 minutes had gone by when we started to wonder if anyone was coming back to the window. Then, we saw an employee come to the back and start bagging up our sandwiches, so we are thinking that we're finally getting served. No, she was bagging up "extra" food, and LEFT THE STORE with the sandwiches we just paid for.
Then, they turned off all the outside lights, as we're still sitting out there with no food and no change. My husband gets out and knocks on the drive through window. The employees actually look at us, turn their backs, and continue going about cleaning the store as if we aren't there. This infuriates him, and he starts honking the horn.
Finally, another 10 minutes later, and the manager comes over to inform us that they are closed and we need to leave. He tells her that we just ordered two sandwiches, they took our money, we watched her employee LEAVE with our food, and we want our money back, NOW. She actually starts to argue with us that she never saw us come through and order anything, and we went back and forth with her arguing that she needed to give us ten dollars that we gave one of her employees for our food.
Finally the person that actually took our change came to the window and told the manager that she did in fact take our money and then forgot to put our order in. How do you forget to put an order in for the only customer at the place?? They tried to apologize and give us coupons, but we promptly informed them there was no need, because we were never going back to that store again. We did call into the corporate office and made a formal complaint as to the way we were treated, and they sent us gift cards but we just threw them away.

Bad experience? Yes
Did the employee fess up to their mistake? Yes
Did Church's try to compensate you for the mistake and poor treatment? Yes
So, over one poor experience you determine that you will never eat at Church's again and threw out the coupons? I bet you will go back once you're done having a tantrum and realize that it was just a mistake.
Posted by ringostar on 2008-09-25:
I agree with justcuz, one bad experience ok but they did handle the situation. Besides why are you complaining if the solution wasn't good enough???
Posted by naomitx24 on 2008-09-25:
they did try to handle the situation but this was the "last straw" experience that put a bad taste in my mouth with that particular church's. they have a history of rude service, bad food, and taking forever. at this point no amount of coupons would have made me want to keep eating there. this actually happened a couple of months ago and trust me, i really won't ever eat there again. it wasn't so much a tantrum as a heads up to anyone wanting to go to that location.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2008-09-25:
I have to agree with just in this particular instance, the employee deserves kudo's for admitting the mistake and Churches for trying to do the right thing.

I Was Discounted and Cheated Which Made Me Feel Like a Thief.
Posted by Phaun2u on 01/11/2014
COLUMBUS, OHIO -- Visiting Church's Chicken on Main Street close to downtown Columbus, Ohio makes me feel like I'm collecting evidence to write a horror book. I don't visit often, but when I do I feel as if I am adding information to my book.
This time, I ordered a 9 pc special. (just chicken) I was told it comes with 3 white PCS and the rest dark. I asked for 3 wings and the rest legs. I wasn't told I would be waiting 7 minutes for my order, someone put the chicken on the wrong timer. when I got home I had 2 breast, 1 wing, and 6 legs. we started eating, put the hot sauce all over my breast. first I tasted the hot sauce as I continue to eat my mouth was filled with a burnt taste. I turned on the big light and looked at the chicken it was burnt. by then 4 PCS was ate by my family.
I called and person whom answered the phone did not introduce themselves. I told her my dilemma, she said bring the chicken back. I stated I was not coming back tonight, she said if you do make sure you have a receipt. what happened to "I apologize" she made me feel as if I stole some burnt chicken and that it was my fault. I was inconvenienced, we could not eat the chicken, and I really do not understand why this location is still open. the people whom are called managers has poor skills, slow, it is ok to be slow if your getting the orders right. the rating for the service was hard because I could not find what comes before the star. They do not deserve 1 star.

It seems like she was willing to correct the mistake, and obviously a receipt would be required. An "I'm sorry" would've been nice, but it does sound like they were going to try to make it right, so I can't fault them for that.
The slow service and getting the order wrong were mistakes. It's always a good idea to check your yourself before leaving.
Posted by Cwazychicken on 2014-01-12:
well if it was as burnt as you said, then i would guess that nobody would be able to eat it. If people ate the chicken and you can't return it, then they will assume it was edible enough...So if you dont have the chicken to return, i can see why they wont refund you. Places are more picky about this more because of scammers scamming them out.

Dirty Filthy Establishment
Posted by Teegee0421 on 10/10/2013
NEW BOSTON, TEXAS -- Firstly, the staff portrayed a large amount of incompetence and a bad attitude towards customers. No one attended to me for about ten minutes, and when the food service worker finally showed up, she showed a severe lack of interest. She had to take my order three times, but even so, she still presented me the wrong food!
Secondly, the service was very slow & poor. I ordered tender strips and this dork gave me 2 thighs and 1 leg. I asked her the if she understood my order and she still messed it up. What made matters worse was that after waiting for so long, the food service brought the wrong food and she had to take it back, she became loud and angry. I stood my ground and let her know she will not talk to me without respect. The female is the rude one who wears loud ruby red lipstick and a jewel between her eyes. I called back to speak to the manager who is a female name (Alexis) and she was very unconcerned about this issue and showed no interest in what I was reporting to her about the incident. I decided to take matter in my own hands and report it.
Thirdly, the food itself was of very poor quality. It was quite cold and tasteless. Immediately I reached home, I suffered from very bad diarrhea which lasted for two days.
All these things considered, I feel I need to be compensated. In addition, I demand that you improve the service at particular churches chicken restaurant or improve the quality of the food, as the service being offered is hazardous to the health of your customers. I have notified the local health department, therefore I will be reporting it to the authorities myself.

You should have reported the incident immediately. As I see it your only recourse is small claims court to recover medical expenses. But this is 2 days later. I would not bother anymore.
Posted by John Nicholson on 2013-09-07:
This is why every responsible adult needs to have health insurance. But, I suspect you will survive and not be able to receive the compensation you think you so richly deserve from this big, terrible corporation.
Posted by Chaparrita on 2013-09-08:
I don't see how the employee was rude. She did apologize. I doubt you'll see any kind of compensation for this. It was an accident and you didn't report it before you left the premises.

How was this employee rude to you?
Posted by clutzycook on 2013-09-08:
How was the employee rude? She apologized, it was an accident. I know you didn't think it would cause an injury, but I'm going to echo that you should have reported it immediately.
Posted by Josh on 2013-09-13:
To repeat what others have said, the employee was not rude. I've accidentally opened a door into someone before because I don't have the ability to see through doors. I've always apologized, like the employee did. It was an accident, not an act of rudeness.

Food Was Gross, but Service Was Great!
Posted by JAKFK on 08/28/2013
FARMINGTON, NEW MEXICO -- Today for lunch, I decided to drive-thru Church's Chicken, since it was close to another appointment I had scheduled. I return to work with my lunch, and after opening the bag, the lettuce on my chicken sandwich had a brownish tint to it, and the mayo tasted rancid. I also ordered a 5-piece boneless honey BBQ, but wasn't given any napkins or even a fork to eat it with. I scrounged around the employee break room back at work, and eventually found a fork. The boneless chicken tasted great!
So, for those of you keeping score, we have great tasting boneless chicken vs. brown lettuce, rancid mayo, no napkins, and no fork. The scales seemed to be tipping in favor of an all out verbal assault or irate online review. However, there was something during my visit that trumped these miscues. And that was good ol' fashioned customer service with a smile. From the time I ordered, to the time I pulled away and into the street. They greeted as friendly as one possibly could, just short of coming outside and hugging me. The food was served promptly, and I saw nothing but smiles on the faces of the drive thru workers and a sincere thank you as they handed the food out the window.
If I was on the Undercover Boss show, I would've definitely rewarded that crew for their excellent customer service. Even though the order was less than satisfactory, the great attitude they displayed will have me coming back to give them a second chance.

Nice to see you are so happy with the smiles whilst they provide bad food. Sort of like having a smiling, happy surgeon who never graduated from medical school and cuts off the wrong leg---but he did so with a smile on his face!

*Waving to JAKFK*
I never cared for Chruch's Chicken...but, it's always nice to have a happy staff wait on you.
Speaking of BBQ....where IS JKT???
Posted by JAKFK on 2013-08-28:
John Nicholson> Good perspective and analogy. But my point was that I place a higher value on service than the product. If a server at Applebee's or Outback is cheery and helpful, then I can look past an entree being missed or brought out a few minutes late. Or I can forgive cold fries and such. The great customer service makes it tolerable.
But on the flip side of the coin, you can serve me the world's greatest tasting food, but if the server has a poor attitude, never smiles, doesn't refill drinks, etc...then I'll never go back.
Posted by tammy on 2014-03-17:
I had friendly service, and was waitied on quickly. but after I had got home and opened the box of chicken , it looked dark and oily , I tasted the chicken before serviing it and it tasted like old grease! this isn't the first time , so I took it back and they told me its because they don't use oil any more , and told me that they had been getting a lot of complaints. I wish they would fix this problem because our family used to love churches chicken.

Rude Employees Bad Service
Posted by 1hotmex on 08/09/2013
TEMPLE, TEXAS -- I went to Church's at about 6:10 p.m. CST. I walk in and there were about
4 to 5 customers in line in front of me and about 4 or 5 cars in drive up window. The employee at the window told the person at drive up window that they were out chicken and they drove off mad as hell. I ask him how long before the chicken is ready. No answer. I ask again thinking he didn't hear me still no answer. So I ask again a little louder still no answer just a blank stare from dumb and dumber. Some of the customer in front of me didn't get any answer either and walk out just like I did. I been a Church's customer for over 50yrs. and never been treated as bad as I have been today.
If this is the type of operations your going to run then you might as well declare chapter 13 and close the whole chain down before you drown in your own dirty grease.

Here's the thing: Chicken takes a long time to properly cook. You don't want to get your chicken in 2 minutes, only to find that it's still raw inside. You know, pink meat, pink or red "juices" when you bite inside.
Sounds like this place was swamped at an unusual time. While customers would like to drive up and order 2 buckets at a time, it's unlikely to happen. Chicken, in addition to taking time to cook properly, is expensive to trash after 10 minutes under the lamps.
If you really want chicken, you have a couple of options. Call ahead and order what you want. Or...Try a local chicken place.
I know that our local chicken place(independently owned)is worth the wait! So do others in my city.

Place Was Dirty And They Had No Chicken Ready
Posted by Corpuslillie54 on 08/05/2013
KIRBY, TEXAS -- We went to get chicken for dinner and they had no chicken ready, they were out of chicken. The girl said they had to do the drive thru first and my wait was 30 minutes. We went to another one on Rittiman Road in San Antonio, TX, the the same thing happened they were out of CHICKEN, we had to wait 15 minutes. I was very disappointed with Churchs. That will be the last time will go there.
Also they were out of sodas. Can you imagine that.

Fried chicken takes some time to cook thoroughly. In our area, chicken places often get slammed at times that might not be predictable.
Right before Packer games--have a lot of chicken ready. After church on Sunday--have a lot of chicken ready.
This evening at 5:00--not predictable.
Are you able to call in ahead of time, so that your order would be ready when you arrive? That might be an option.
Posted by JoeKay on 2013-08-06:
I'd rather wait a few minutes (I waited 10 minutes yesterday) for Church's then get the diddly little pieces they give ya at KFC, slathered in MSG no less, consisting of skin and bones for way more. 10 pc leg and thigh plus a large side for $9 and its great, even reheated (meaning the oil was fresh). No I don't work at Church's but I do count pennies. Try the Church's in Roseville, MI. It'd be worth the ride.

Nissan's Around View monitor camera system becomes standard on Quest LE models. A DVD entertainment package is now optional on SV models...more
The Nissan Quest has one of the most dramatic and stylish designs in its segment, but the real story with any minivan is what's inside. The Quest's innovative interior makes it one of the most versatile and usable minivans on the market. A unique design for the sliding doors means that the step-in height is lower than on other minivans. The second- and third-row seats fold easily, but the second-row seats can't be removed, and the third row doesn't tumble into the floor. More useful for most families, however, is the deep, 11.4-cubic-foot cargo well behind the third row that can be enclosed with a 60/40-split cover that can support up to 200 pounds. Keyless entry and push-button start are standard; a backup camera and power sliding doors are standard on all but the base Quest S. Other options include a huge, eleven-inch rear DVD screen, Bose audio, touch-screen navigation, and dual moonroofs that slide open. A 3.5-liter V-6 offers 260 hp and 240 lb-ft of torque and operates more quietly in the Quest than in other Nissan vehicles. A continuously variable transmission provides smooth acceleration and helps keep fuel economy figures competitive. Nissan Quest sales have long lagged behind other minivans', but the new model is more competitive than ever and merits a test drive by anyone shopping for a versatile family hauler.
Front, side, and side curtain air bags are standard, as are stability and traction control, ABS with brake assist, and a tire-pressure monitoring system. A blind-spot warning system is standard on the LE.
